Gideon: How’d He Do It?
There are many spectacular events in the Bible. There were the plagues of Egypt, the parting of the Red Sea and later the Jordan. The Blind and deaf were healed and people were raised from the dead. In a separate category, there was the Creation, the Virgin Birth, and the Resurrection. But there is one […]
The Second Coming and the Solar Eclipse
The Second Coming The Second Coming of Jesus is real. It stands today as certain Bible prophecy. Jesus Himself said, “And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and will take you to myself, that where I am you may be also” (John 14:3). No Christian denies a return […]

Some popular news commentators, trying to rally support for Israel, are suggesting that today’s Israel is […]
